| TASTING NOTE: The 2015 Alvarinho (Delaforce) shows beautiful depth, fine persistence and excellent fruit. Douro Alvarinho is not quite a \"thing\" yet, but most of the interesting ones seem to be associated with places where winemaker Jorge Moreira works. The lingering finish provides a serious end to this well-constructed Alvarinho. Drink date: 2016-2020. Score - 90 (Mark Squires, robertparker.com, Aug. 30, 2016) |
